"Model S prices range all the way from $57,400 to $105,400 before
state and federal incentives. The silver sedan I tried would cost
about $70,000."

Yeah this is a car for the masses.

Make sure you read up on the "bricking" problem that Tesla's have.

I am really surprised that the lefties are not up in arms about this
1%er welfare and corporate subsidy.

Some guy who can pony up the money for a hundred grand car is getting
a handout from the feds of $30k plus whatever the state will match.

It's called R&D. Have you ever considered the handouts NASA had a hand
in? Great stuff came from them, too.
